Graffiti and Street Art in Lyon are not to everyone’s taste! I will not tell you about the 1st edition of the \u00ab\u00a0Fresh Painting\u00a0\u00bb Festival, which you can find all the details and works on their Facebook<\/strong><\/a> page. No, I’m going to talk to you about real Urban Art; the one that is not sponsored by the city halls of Lyon! Yes you read well, in Lyon the official art is \u00ab\u00a0conventionn\u00e9\u00a0\u00bb! The owners of the buildings have a \u00ab\u00a0clean walls\u00a0\u00bb convention with the town hall and the tags or works are systematically covered after 2 weeks. Even those of famous artists!<\/p>\n

The situation of Street Art in Lyon still evolves in the city since some landlords (owners) and town halls support Urban Art projects. At the Croix-Rousse it is \u00ab\u00a0Place des Tapis\u00a0\u00bb \u00a0that we can admire a huge wall of 120 M2\u00a0<\/sup>! It is managed by the Association MUR69<\/strong><\/a> and highlights artists from Lyon. While I’ve write the article; The wall was having a work by the collective BLAST<\/strong><\/a> which brings together three artists with complementary skills: the sculptor illustrator Romain Lardanchet<\/strong>, the graffiti artist Kalouf<\/strong> at the origin of this monumental work, and the light artist and architect Julien Menzel<\/strong>.<\/p>
